    Image with white background

    You can't. JPG comes with a background- no exceptions. Save it as PNG-24. That comes with alpha transparency Gif does have transparency, but it's either on or off, so it saves all the feathering pixels with the original white background, hence the white halo. You can minimise it by...

    What do you think of my website logo?

    If it's a logo it's probably a custom one (or more probably yet a modified one). You can try your luck here though: http://www.identifont.com/

    13 free & very useful php/mysql scripts

    The shopping cart can be fused into Joomla if that's any help. The scripts just work. And the documentation is good too. The 3 I've tried just dropped straight in with no trouble whatsoever. I like that in a script.

    What do you think of my website logo?

    Sorry dude, another vote for keeping it light from a professional webdesigner. I'm in Spain -on broadband now- and the best speed I've EVER got from it is 120Kb/sec, as I'm quite a ways from the exchange. That's KiloBytes and not KiloBits (multiply by 8); which is the number your ISP sells...

    Socialism

    It's a lovely idea in one sense, but cannot possibly work because there's always a percentage who take the piss. Also, there's the aspect of abdicating control over your life. Who decides what my needs are? George Orwell's Animal Farm is an excellent book on the subject, set as a children's...

    Updating a logo (1000+, paypal as well)

    Heh. Typical bloody client. Their existing logo is OK anyway...just needs tidying up. I liked leviathon's monitor-in-a-cog symbol. That was clever. Cheers for the points Kayos!

    new to x10, need some help/advice

    The link will remain the same, yes. But at 1.1Mb a go, you might burn through your bandwidth quite quickly if you have your work listed in a lot of places. You use a FTP program Like this free one: http://filezilla-project.org/ You connect by specifying the server you want to connect to...

    Content Writers

    Going rate is about $5/article (500 word) I believe. You can outsource it for down to $1/article, but I gather from context that you pretty well have to rewrite it when you get it, usually.

    Free Advice If You Implement

    Dude. This is the internet. We hear "too good to be true" offers everytime we refresh the page. And your credentials -impressive as they undoubtedly would be if verified- doesn't necessarily mean that you could use the same tactics and succeed now. Just 2 posts on the board means you came...

    [100 points] Joomla template porting

    Look at the CSS. Post it/them here if you can't see anything wrong. Joomla isn't really my home ground- can you format the columns from the admin panel?

    [100 points] Joomla template porting

    Funny. It's only doing it for the top post on the site you have visible. And yet there's nothing in that post that should be causing it (huge graphic). If you're getting the same thing on the new template, I'd look at the CSS as the probable likely culprit, with the positioning CSS...

    site review

    I apologise. Just something about yesterday's phrasing recalled technical support from India. The site has improved again. Still reads as a bit spammy but you've definitely got your keywords in. Logo- looks blurry. Hint: work on it 200% size and reduce the size as the last thing you...

    Review Site

    1901 is in range. the oldest person is about 130 IIRC, so now --> ~1880 is acceptable. No point injecting if you have the slightest amount of sanitisation in place. Feedback was just what I experienced- I guess you're writing a login system. Colours & look OK, and function seems OK if...

    site review

    That is much better, without a doubt. No damage about the logo- I just offered it as an interim thing while you got your stuff together, and because I happened to have photoshop fired up at the time. So. Much better. Much much better. 1) "The below links are internal and are not Ads"-...
